Just Shagging Part 10; No science or skill, JS at will!

AWomanCalledHorse · 27/06/2012 14:03

Welcome to the lazy way to make a baby, part 10!!

Just Shagging (JS) is ttc using ye olde shagging & crossing fingers methods, our tools are your body, OH?s body..urm some wine & lots of finger crossing.

All are welcome, most leave happy & upduffed! The last two threads have been very successful; thread 8 had 5 BFP?s, thread 9 had 6 BFP?s....so we?re due 7 BFP?s here, which means we all need to get shagging.

We don?t ?do?; OPKS, taking temp or harcore charting...although it is nice to know when ERTD is due.
Which brings us to acronyms & slang;
AF=ERTD (Evil Red Tide Of Doom).
EWCM=Pant Snot
Getting a BFP soon after joining thread= Doing a kitten
You=Are a viroid, no idea why but it goes long back to the dawn of time.
DTD=JS or donning the Shag cape.
POAS=Sometimes referred to as PIAR (Pissing In A Ramekin), as we?re such classy ladies

Here is last thread for proof that it works, and that you can't shut us up Grin

Here is the Graduates thread!

Wow...that'd be a step too far! ;-p

AndieMatrix · 27/08/2012 15:11

We'll be voting and all sorts next.lol

NickiNockiNoodle · 27/08/2012 15:08

Andie and Hooya, I'm also the one going back to work ASAP while self-employed H2B stays at home.

Aren't we modern women?! :-/

AndieMatrix · 27/08/2012 14:54

I get the feeling there'll be a lot of Hooya's flying around. :-) I'm already thinking names slaps face
Horse I'm getting those pains too. Just consulted my calendar,seems about right for ov. We can but hope.
Hooya We'll probably end up with me working and DP at home too as he's self employed and it'd be easier for me to find a steady job than to have the dreaded moments between contracts!

AWomanCalledHorse · 27/08/2012 14:01

I think we'll have to rename a ttc/poas related slap 'The Hooya', considering the last few thread pages! Grin
Like Andie says, do as we say not as we do, my name is Horse & I am a POAS addict!

I think I'm either ovulating or implanting atm as I have period like pains after JS yesterday morning (so bad I turned down JS today, the shame of it)! although it's probably nothing & someone needs to hooya me!

Hooya, we can just about afford for me to not work (short term, can't afford a bigger mortgage) so if we don't have them close together now, we'd be looking at me going to work for 10 or so years & then seeing if DH wants more when he's in his 50s & I'm in my 40s.
Hope you find a new job (if that's what you want, in practical terms)!
Hope even more that you get upduffed.

Wow, it's all go for your life right now Hooya Whichever way things go right now I hope it leads to a happy future. Que sera sera. :-)
We'll be your backbone when it comes to stick peeing, just don't judge us when we can't practice what we preach.lol

Hooya · 27/08/2012 11:30

Evening all - hope you've had a lovely bank hol while I was daydreaming slaving away at my desk!

DP is mostly delighted to be used for his sperm Grin - but I think this week after JSing practically every day for 10 days, the novelty must be wearing off!

Horse long cycles must be annoying too, much longer wait! I can see why you'd want to test early!

Andie and Horse how exciting going for a big brood! I expect we'll stop at one... DP will be the stay-at-home one, with me going back to work fast, so multiple maternity leaves isn't ideal!

I'm actually looking for another job, which means if I get one we have to stop TTC for a while. So it's kind of a race to see whether I can get duffed or get a new job first! Much as I am keen to move, I can't help hoping that my ovaries and his swimmers move fast ha ha as it's too exciting to wait and I am not getting any younger

Oh and I am planning to be rigid in my POAS avoidance - so please give me a slap if I'm talking about breaking my rules!

AndieMatrix · 27/08/2012 09:04

Horse Ditto as many kids as poss (we'll stop after this one though...unless w get a big Lotto win) and the baldness.lol

Also agreed on Hooyas POAS rule. I'll be waiting til after missed period but not sure I could make it to two weeks.lol

AWomanCalledHorse · 27/08/2012 08:53

If we could afford it I'd be having as many kids as I can pre-menopause.

Hooya that sounds really frustrating! I've just got long cycles atm.
Well done on setting rules about POAS times! I'm too weak.

Andie, Grin My DH said the same thing, if I was choosing someone based on sperm potential I'd pick someone who didn't have male pattern baldness.

Hooya It'll be our fifth collectively!haha. Only see DSSs at the weekends (when their DM sees fit). I've wanted a large family since I was small,always surrounded by babies as a teen so I'm a broody person. Sounds like your DP is flagging a bit.lol

Horse Don't worry about the fertility apps. You'll drive yourself insane. Confused

My DP told me last night that I only want him for his sperm.lol. Good job I know he doesn't really think that, silly bugger.

Hooya · 26/08/2012 23:45

Morning all!

Andie a third, wow! I am nervous about just one!!

Horse it's difficult isn't it - trying not to worry and just get on with it! Because of my two quite different cycles (28 days then 23) we're having to go for it for ages - tiredness starting to set in now. And DP just asked "when can we test" when I've already made a rule to only test if I have proper symptoms or am 2 weeks late, and when it's only CD14! Poor man must be knackered Smile

I wouldn't worry about the apps too much though, sperm lives for a while in there and the apps aren't definitely right, are they?

Gutted we have to go to work now when all you lot have the day off Envy!

AWomanCalledHorse · 26/08/2012 22:34

Boo nightshifts Andie, hope DC1 & 2 calmed down!
Remember to let us all know when they're lovely to one another....trying to focus on the positives Grin

Hooya, IKWYM. Hope you're feeling better about it soon, I've been looking at different fertility apps and apparently I was fertile in the week that's just gone (so the one I was uti-ed up through), GAH!

Almost too quite around here!
Hope everyone enjoys their extra day off, DH got the entire weekend off (unheard of in his job) and is walking around in shock!

OP posts:
AndieMatrix · 26/08/2012 09:13

Everybody must have been busy yesterday Wink
I'm trying to stop DC1 & 2 from shouting at eachother and waking DP.
Why exactly do I want a third?lol

Hooya · 26/08/2012 00:11

Quiet around here! And forgot to say toffee congrats for two lines persisting!

Hooya · 25/08/2012 12:25

Hello all!

notso glad you are having fun!

Andie boo about the nightshifts, I always wish JSing were not so tiring!

I've had a nice lazy day, trying not to think about TTC too much...
JSing wise we've been at it like crazy to be honest - every day mostly, every other day at the least, but I don't know if anything ov-like is happening at all Sad - I just don't feel like anything is happening, IYKWIM? Hope I'm just being a pessimist...

Anyway it's fun having loads of sex, even though we're used to a bit more variety Blush I guess!

toffeesam · 25/08/2012 10:54

I'm feeling positive as there are still 2 lines this morning.

Andy work getting in the way of JSing is a shame, but i thought i had missed the optimum this month, but it seems not.

come on ladies a few more BFPs would be great this month. Fingers crossed for everyone. Wink

AndieMatrix · 25/08/2012 10:34

I do love a good pun. Smile

JSing out for us this weekend as DP got some extra night shifts so is shattered. Shame as I suspect it's the perfect time.

How is everyone today?

toffeesam · 25/08/2012 10:04

Thanks everyone.
Hooya maddness is good!
Notso I'm glad life is good Smile

this is a (re)productive thread (chuckle) funny Andie Grin

AndieMatrix · 24/08/2012 19:50

Congrats toffee.
What a (re)productive thread.

NicolaHazel · 24/08/2012 18:58

Congrats Toffee :-)

notsoold · 24/08/2012 18:38

toffee congratulations and congratulations again!!!
We are so successful here and all glowing from the nice exercise jsing!
Missing jsing we are(tmi) with the stents. It really kills the mood.

So we decided if we can not ttc for now, we will enjoy each other's company.
Got ourselves another little break. Ds stays in dd flat and a full fridge and ps3 and doggie goes to my mum....
Jsing or not life can be good...:)

Pineapple80 · 24/08/2012 18:35

Congrats Toffee! Grin

Hooya · 24/08/2012 14:50

DP and I briefly tried to discuss how amazing our parents' reactions would be, but even talking about it even makes us cry so who knows what they would be like! They're so wonderful and understanding about us never wanting kids, never ask questions about it, but we know they would be absolutely thrilled about our change of heart.

I have no evidence that I'm even fertile, must stop this madness!

AWomanCalledHorse · 24/08/2012 14:17

Hurrah toffee! Congrats! I understand the hanging around until you're 100% it's a sticky baby, when I get my bfp I'll be here until 12wk scan.
With PIL we just dropped it in casually, think it was along the lines of 'Ooh, this chair is wobbly, Horse is pregnant'...took MIL a while to work it out & then she bawled like a baby.

Hooya,Kitten,Swimming I've been looking out for 'Big Brother' tshirts for DS, think that's the way I'd like people to know this time. So I need a too!
